The information on auxiliary characteristics helps significantly in increasing the efficiency of control charts for detecting shifts in process parameters. In this study we proposed Shewhart type control charts, namely the r A chart, the (1984) and Wade and Woodall (1993). It has been observed that the proposed charts perform superior, in terms of discriminatory power, as compared to the above mentioned counterparts, depending upon the correlation structure among the auxiliary characteristics and the quality characteristic of interest. The said superiority zone of the correlation structures, favoring the proposed charts, needs to be identified very carefully to apply it in a given situation.
